Stichting Redeemer International Church Delft (“Redeemer Delft”) was founded on 17 December 2018 in Delft (Our KvK nr: 73364274; RSIN nr: 859487830). Shortly thereafter Redeemer Delft was also registered as an ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) with the Dutch Tax Authorities. As a consequence, anyone who gives money to the church can deduct that from their income or company tax, to the extent permitted by Dutch law.
Redeemer International Church in Delft was a ‘church plant’ from Redeemer International Church in The Hague. You can read more about our history visiting the About – Our Story page.
Here you will find all the documents as required by Dutch law that we are required to publish due to our registration as an ANBI.

Purpose of the Stichting
The purpose of the church will be, in obedience with God’s infallible Word (“the Bible”), empowered by the Holy Spirit, to lead people to Jesus and His family, whereby coming to spiritual maturity and learning to exalt His name. In this they shall also be equipped to serve and to proclaim His Kingdom in the world.
In fulfilling the vision, the approach of Redeemer International Church Delft is to:
• Clearly proclaim the Gospel of Jesus through engaging teaching on Sunday meetings, and in other contexts.
• Clearly demonstrate the implications of the Gospel in how the church serves and engages with the city in which it finds itself.
• Intentionally seek to start new churches in other parts of the city we find ourselves in, as well as into other cities in the Netherlands, and further afield.
• Have a strong focus on leadership development so that there is enough leaders to lead what is happening now, what will happen as the church grows, and what will happen as new churches are started in different localities.
In addition to the above, the church will strive to attain this purpose through:
• organizing meetings
• the provision of religious education in the broadest sense
• organizing missionary and evangelical activities
• various media, such as the distribution and/or provision of Christian literature
• active involvement in different forms of social aid
• cooperation with other organizations that are striving toward the same goals
• other lawful means

For most other activities and metric, there has been no significant changes. We marginally increased the number of staff hours and we have continued to support the church plant in Rotterdam.

Financial Statement 2022
During the year the work of the church was provided for by the grace of God and through the continued support of its members who gave generously their time, energy and financial resources.
Overview
Preliminary results of 2022:
Total incoming donations in 2022 were €261.469

Total additions to the funds in 2022 (should be 10% of our incoming donations): €27.697
Netto result 2022: +€6.359
Changes in 2022
Since 2022 we have a new church plant, Redeemer Rotterdam, started from Redeemer Delft. Untill its fully mature to ‘stand on its own legs’ Redeemer Delft gives all the support needed. One thing to help set up is there was another IBAN created within the bank account of Redemeer Delft to separate the transactions for Rotterdam. Another was the gift day of 2022. A dedicated offering to help Rotterdam with a starting budget.
Since the Rotterdam church plant project is under the wings of Delft the finances are officially Delft but destined for Rotterdam and may therefore not be used for Delft purposes. Splitting the net results would be +€33.821 for Rotterdam and -€29.665 for Delft. The surplus from 2021 covered more than the ‘loss’ of 2022 and therefore the financial situation is still good.
More to follow soon.
